And make all the title consistent. Fixes matplotlib#6864.
Though, I left out anything older than 1.0, since those are all aggregated at the end.
And tweak some of the wording.
Since Sphinx treats these lines as mostly a single paragraph, this is a by-rote commit to re-wrap everything properly. Do not expect the entire file to look good; it just will no longer randomly switch between bold and not. The only non-rote change is to turn the release message into a section heading.

No, the grouping section headings are already =, so this needs to be a level higher. Older files don't have grouping.

It also appears that the 3.1.2 stats are a copy of 3.1.1 |

PR Summary
Adds dates on What's new and GitHub statistics pages. Rename section titles to be consistent.
And one giant commit fixing the weird rendering of the very old changelog. I expect GitHub will not do a good job of showing that diff, but it is essentially splitting the text after the date to turn it into a correct definition list.
